I stumbled across this as I was playing with the console for test and debugging. Normally, the console shoud shout a warning like: illegal use of ns_conn. Syntax is ns_conn ?instruction? "data"...
There seems to be a bug - it would seem that there is no check on the use of this instruction, and therfore a infraction of Michael Abrash's first rule of programming: "Assume nothing!" Anyway, now I have found that it crashes my test environment, I won't do it again!
